Ribociclib’s job is to block CDK4/6, two key players involved in breast cancer, specifically the ones that are HR and HER2-. What it does is stop the cells from dividing and growing by keeping the cell cycle on pause. You get Ribociclib in tablet form, each one has 200 mg of the good stuff.
The doc usually says take 600 mg every day for three weeks out of a four-week cycle. It comes in those blister packs with 63 tabs in each one. The key part is what stops CDK4/6 from getting mixed up with what it shouldn’t, like cyclin D.
That’s a big deal because it controls how cells move from one phase to the next. It’s used for breast cancer patients who’ve either never been treated or for those who the regular hormone treatments just aren’t working anymore. It’s all about treating people as individuals.
